About this tag
Halo Campaign Evolved is a full remake of the original 2001 Halo: Combat Evolved, rebuilt in Unreal Engine 5 and launching July 28, 2026, on Xbox Series X|S, Windows PC, Steam, and PlayStation 5. The remake focuses exclusively on the campaign with expanded co-op and three new prequel missions, deliberately omitting competitive multiplayer. PC requirements are steep, demanding an RTX 4080 and 32GB RAM for 4K/60 Ultra settings. Development involves outsourcing to Abstraction while Halo Studios handles core systems, cinematics, UI, and online services. The cross-platform release marks a strategic shift for Microsoft, treating Halo as a content platform beyond Xbox exclusivity.
